Demorallsfpe Results.

3 Tho Lancaster county Republican prim.
~ election has been held with more than
- usual attendant decentralization. The
aoisy and drunken crowds on the streets
Saturday afternoon and evening told all
10 plainly that the local Republican hosts
1ad locked horns, and that the debauching
q the voter by money and drink had set in.
4 II the Republican Anti Corruption ssso-
siation wishes to show . reason for its ex-
htsnce, let it investigate the wholesale
vote-buying in all the wards Of the city.
In the Second ward, which contains more
wealth than any other two wards in the
ely, votes were bought at $3.50 each, and
tAs traffic in them was notoriously open
Two defeated candidates for foremos
ceaces are said to have spent 5000 eacl
. secure their election. 1t is as plain as
pike STAN that the great bulk Of these fund
WAs spent in manner expressly prohibited

In the Sixth ward, where 81 votes were
returned for Mentzer, liz people have al
ready made affidavit that they voted fol
him.
The effects of this " carnival Of fraud
upon the people Of the county must be
incalculably bad. Men have been taken
from their regular occupations to buy or
be bought, and all have been made more
familiar with the demoralizing traffic in
that most elevated Of political blessings,
the right OF suffrage. Year after year the
INrELLIGENCER has called attention tG
the demoraliziDg effects Of the Republican
primary election, and the situation ha'
steadily gr0HR worse. SO long a
kep1e|ioan intelligence remains at it

A Stubborn Judse,

Judge Patterson protects his reputation
Tor stubbornness by his action in the Hotel
Lancaster case, and demonstrates his utter
inability to act wisely when his inclina.
tions lead him another way. He is not
incapable Of wisdom. He knows what it is.
Oftentimes he has exhibited marked
degree Of shrewdness In his conduct. But
he Is utterly lost when he has an enemy

hslp satisfying prejudice or kick.
Ing foe, even though he hurts him.
self vast deal more than he does
the other fellow; and knows that he does.
This type of men is not very rare, but there
d not often found more distinctly marked
member than our friend the judge. The
zebra bands are very visible.
A wise man certainly would not have
refused this license, though it be, as the
Judge says, unnecessary. We agree that
there is no absolute necessity for it. Every.
body can be accommodated with all they
want to drink or eat, and with
beds for sleep, without the facilities
OF this new hotel. But this is
not at all the question. The town, un-
doubtedly, could get along with one tenth
thenumber of drinking places and be bet
ter of without them. The high license
bill has been passed with the express view
oflimiting the number Of saloons and Of
making them of a better class and putting
them In more respectable hands.
And the people of this community know
that the licensing of the Hotel Lancaster
would be in the line of this Improvement,
because the character Of the place and OF
the man keeping it are both high. The
peoples sense Of justice has been out.
ragged by the refusal of a license to this
place and the grant Of it to places of very
much lower character.
Everyone knows that Judge Patterson
Old not refuse this license because Of the
reason he assigns. He demonstrated this
conclusively when he gave George II. Miller
. tavern license.
He may deceive himself, and really think
that bis reason is the one he gives. Hehas an
aptitude for selt.deception. He has even
been known to upbraid another's stubborn.
ness and blame it on his Scotch-Irisb
Blood, In all Inconsistencies of his owu
example.

The great need Of navigation is to find
some way of beating fog. The fog horn
does not do it. The other day two steamers

they could not hear each others noise.
